“Every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and I may say innocence, with Nature herself.”

― Henry David Thoreau

Permaculture in Ireland

Bealtaine Cottage is the oldest established, publicly accessible smallholding in the North West of Ireland, now in its eleventh year.

Back doorsteps…

“Sitting at our back doorsteps, all we need to live a good life lies about us. Sun, wind, people, buildings, stones, sea, birds and plants surround us. Cooperation with all these things brings harmony, opposition to them brings disaster and chaos.” ― Bill Mollison

Gaia…

The more speculative versions of Gaia, hold that it is possible that the Earth is actually conscious, sentient, and highly intelligent. This is what I believe!

“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.” ― Arundhati Roy

Eden…
